Re: homemade led tails DONE!

Nice job . looks awesome. For people like me without that kinda talent using duct tape to line the housing helps brighten things up a bit .

Re: homemade led tails DONE!

Just looking at those and your pattern I think they are the same as stock tail light sizes.

Do they use the factory housing on the truck?
Like these. If so they should work fine.

Re: homemade led tails DONE!

There's a set in classified about 50$ more than the regular ones. The leds are more expensive and they take a lot longer to make...

Wink Re: homemade led tails DONE!

Here is big reds on his truck. They are very very bright. 30000 mcd each led x 54 =@5400 + lumens each pannel. A standard 1157=404 lumens... The white ones I just got are 50000mcd each 32 per reverse lights =@4000+ lumens each. Hope to have pics of them tomorrow... I hope he will chime in ,but I believe his words were that the pics don't do justice to how bright they really are

Re: homemade led tails DONE!

Ok guys I got some questions of what these lights look like on the back. Well I put a rubber backer on them to protect them from shorting but I snapped a photo before I finished these so all could see. I also shot this short video to show off the new 30000mcd red and 50000 mcd white leds I got. These are for a fellow board member.Check out this video on YouTube:

Where did you find the 30,000mcd red and 50,000mcd white? 15,000 is about as high as I can find.
